    Sorry JC, I was offline an onto dinner...just saw ur post. I thought it was copyright violation to plagerize a recipe out of a mag. If I paraphrase I guess I'll be ok; Thin Spaghetti w Scallops, Fish and Anchovy Sauce: serves (2-3) 1/2lb cod, haddock, Striped bass or other firm white fish, 1/2lb sea scallops,1/4 cup chopped parsley,4 (or more) cloves of Garlic,1/3 cup olive oil, 2tbs butter 1 can of anchovies,1/2lb thin spaghetti, salt and pepper, 6oz. dry white wine, opt cayenne pepper....Melt butter in 3tbs of oil in med heat, peel and crush garlic and saute til browned, add anchovies and mash as it cooks- it will liquify, add parsley -stir then place floured (and salt and peppered) fillets on top, turning once til cooked through. remove the garlic to prevent it burning- now chop it up fine to add later. As this cooks, melt 1 tbs each of butter and oil to a second saute' pan- again over med heat- add scallops. Don't turn them till they are on the verge of burning, then turn and carmelize the other side. Scoop out cooked fish and scallops into a cassarole dish and keep warm in your oven which should be set low (200deg). Now splash 1/2 the wine into each pan- along with the chopped browned garlic and scrape the pans contents into one to get all the tasty bits. Pour this mixture into your cooked, drained spaghetti, mix well. Now you can put the pasta on a platter and top with the fish and scallops. Serve with fresh Italian or French bread and a tossed salad and a chilled white wine and you have a great dinner and saved 50.00 that you would have spent at a restaurant...

    looks like it will be spaghetti for me....with a twist in it....I put green chilli peppers or jalapeno peppers in it depending on what I have available. I have actually made the sauce using chilli sauce and spaghetti sauce as well. It tastes great and will definitely wake you up if you put too much pepper in or dont like hot food....LOL Any spaghetti I make has ground meat of some sort, black olives, chopped onions and two cans of mushrooms in it

    Tonight will be something very simple, Wegman's or Hoffman's Red Franks in natural casings and Bush's baked beans.

    Boil the franks for six minutes then put them under the broiler or pan fry till they're browned to suit.
    it makes a good shore lunch too!

    P.S.
    Duke has confided in me on how to vary the beans...but I'll never tell!

    Beano works!

    Wegman's has moved into Maryland and I'll bet they've already found many customers there. One of Upstate NY'S outstanding supermarkets proves this area is still good for sumthun!

    Tonight it was long grain and wild rice with a tomato-based sauce and chunked tuna meat. Not the nicest meal in the world, but sure beats pizza or ramen noodles for a college student.
